In their fourth annual going, the real estate office, located at 5424 Hwy. 10 East, held a basket raffle featuring more than 30 gift baskets, along with a bake sale — all donated by friends, family and partnering businesses — Nov. 15-17.

“The response has been phenomenal,” said Sue Hackbarth, administrative assistant in the office, of the donations.

The office has raised $24,500 for the charity, Hackbarth said.
